The June 2006 edition of the Gazette contained a Notice that from 1 July 2006, applicants need not submit any printed copies of the Marketed Product Label (MPL) for final label approval, but may submit an electronic file (e-label) of the MPL in portable document format (pdf).
The Notice also stated that from 1 January 2007, the APVMA will not accept MPLs in printed form and will only accept e-labels.
This current Notice confirms that from 1 January 2007, it is mandatory for applicants to provide MPLs in e-label format. From that date, the APVMA will not accept MPLs in printed form unless there are justifiable circumstances.
Updated detailed instructions for the preparation and submission of e-labels are on the APVMA website.
